The user who found the AIS\u2019 database left open on the Internet tried to contact AIS to get database secured, but the company ignored all his messages. And only after contacting the ThaiCERT (National Computer Emergency Response Team of Thailand) the company took measures to get the database offline shortly after. The problem was rapidly addressed, nevertheless, this month turned out to be pretty discouraging.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"accentColor\"> A total of 105 incidents occurred,<\/span> including several that are alarming in terms of scale and severe consequences, although they may seem less threatening regarding the AIS case.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In fact, <span class=\"accentColor\"> you must keep in mind that it is relatively minor data breaches that can often be the most devastating. <\/span> They may be of little value to hackers, but for users, they are very sensitive.
